It's unique in that it requires <b>no</b> training, and dials people directly from your <b>entire</b> contact list. Is there any other phone on the market that can do this?<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/VoiceDial.Start.jpg" />

ive been using the full version for about 2 weeks and am quite impressed (although i havent tried anything else for long -- i used the neuvoice demo briefly but there was something, i dont remember what, that i didnt like about it).

it does very well at recognizing the names as well as dialing spoken numbers.

it should be included as part of the phone edition os and it made my "Must Have" list of software for the T-Mobile.

Can this be used with a PPC2k2 and a Bluetooth phone, like a T68 with a PDA using the Socket BT card?

No. It's only for the Phone Edition devices. However, I could see someone write something that would let you do something similar like Running Voice GSM with voice recognition. Not a bad idea, but still not as convenient has having one device. :)

This thing is really slick, especially since you don't have to "train" each entry like you do with voice-activated phones like the T68. In those rare instances when it does NOT correctly recognize what I'm saying, it's usually because I'm accidentally saying the name differently than it's entered in my Contacts list.

I have been using the voice command with SprintPCS phone, it is a very accurate voice recognition without voice training.

How it works?
Just upload your (Outlook) phone book to your account on their Web site. From your cel phone dial * then just say the name....or nick name (e.g. "Dial John Smith")

How it cost?
Cost $5/month with 3 free month to start.

Very simple solution, No Bluetooth phone nor Bluetooth PDA needed! excellent while driving...No need to re-enter your cel phone book when changing your phone.
